Old Dog

[Don]

I'm still speechless over the results and the quality of the work & I CAN'T WAIT to see how the truck turns out. You should enter this car in Autopia's Extreme Makeover Contest.

My arms & back ache thinking about the amount of effort you put into this now beautiful classic.

We did the truck last week. Even though the transformation was just as dramatic as the 41 Plymouth the before and after pics aren’t that different. It was kind of like photographing white.

It is very hard to tell (in pic only) from oxidation to brilliant shine. In person it was awesome!

I would love to upload some pics but the gallery will not allow me to.

OK, Gallery is working now.

The before and after are hard to see but it was a very dramatic difference.

Actually, I can see a significant difference. To me it's as clear as the before & afters of the Plymouth...EXCELLENT work

I agree with you Don.

The top has a very nice reflection to it.

Revitalizing an old thread here.

Joe, I love the car as well as what you were able to do with it.

I was just curious as to if you might remember any history the owner may have been able to tell you about it. An "Old Dog" like that probably has a few good stories built around it.

[Superior Shine]

The current owner has had it for less than 2 years. It runs and drives but could maybe use some love mechanically.

Wow, that is all I can say, WOW. The bar is raised to a new level, and I have much work to do get to that level of professionalism. Did the owner have yo do anything with the Jeeps or Willy's? Thanks for the inspiration!

Polished so much, they had to call in the fire department, eh?

Absolutely amazing Joe!

Re: Old Dog

Worthy of a **bump** nearly 3 years after the fact.

Before pic: even in direct sunlight, only individual shiny spots are apparent.

After pic: The paint displays clear and obvious reflective surfaces and reflections.

So the color didn't deepen and it actually seems a bit lighter than before...SO WHAT?! That is a retina-searing reflection my friend, and to think, you've had three years to refine your already mad skills even further!!
